Overview: The income statement is the financial report that shows investors how sales (top line) and expenses are being turned into net income (bottom line.) The income statement is sometimes called a P&L (Profit and Loss) statement and is one of the three key financial statements released to the public each quarter. The most popular financial metric, earnings, comes from the bottom line of the income statement, which makes this an important report to understand.
